When I was young 12-14 maybe, I would take the pipe from my rm100 and put it in a small brush pile fire for a bit and them tap it with a rubber hammer. It got an unbelievable amout of carbon out. A little red neck Im sure but me were farmers and had red necks!

I've always used a propane torch on the inside of the pipe. Heat the carbon till it turns orange, then it just flakes off with a light scrape of flathead screwdriver.

No! :-P :-D That's how we clean our bbq grills camping. Just flip them over and cook them most of the way clean. I was thinking about throwing the pipe in a fire, then tapping it. All these ideas are great though.
